Craig Wedren is scoring the new NBC drama New Amsterdam. The show is created by David Schulner (Do No Harm, Emerald City) and stars Ryan Eggold, Freema Agyeman, Janet Montgomery, Jocko Sims, Anupam Kher and Tyler Labine. The medical drama is inspired by the oldest public hospital in America and follows the brilliant and charming Dr. Max Goodwin, the institution’s newest medical director, who sets out to tear up the bureaucracy and provide exceptional care. Schulner is also executive producing the Universal Television production with Peter Horton (Grey’s Anatomy) and Kate Dennis who also directed the pilot episode. New Amsterdam is premiering tonight and will air Tuesday nights on NBC. Visit the official show website for updates.
Wedren (School of Rock, Role Models, Wet Hot American Summer) also continues to score Netflix’s GLOW, which will return for its third season next year, as well as ABC’s Fresh Off the Boat, which will have its season 5 debut on October 5.
Love the show and love the music. Very well done. A wonderful escape from my world to New Amsterdam’s world.
What is the name of Craig Wadren’s closing song?
Cancelled. We loved this show but this season the loud distracting music constantly overwhelming the dialogue makes us sick. STOP MAKING THE MUSIC THE MAIN EVENT. Congrats Craig, you got another show dropped.
